Static route is a kind of special route that configured by administrator manually. After static route is configured, data

static route properly, it can improve the network performance and guarantee bandwidth for important applications.
When you configure static route, you should understand the following:
1. Destination IP address and mask
When you configure static route, destination IP address and mask must be in dotted decimal notation format.
2. Outbound interface and next hop
When you configure static route, you can specify the outbound interface and next hop. Whether you specify the
outbound interface or next hop, you should depend on the real condition. Routing cannot take effect if the next hop
is local interface IP address.
